No ratings yet
This toasty Italian Cold Cut Sandwich is the easiest pre-run lunch: simple to make, super fresh, and packed with everything I want mid-day like carbs, meat, veggies, and tons of flavor. It has the creamy richness of fresh mozzarella with the savory mix three kinds of charcuterie, juicy tomatoes, and tart balsamic arugula and pickled carrots. This sandwich has the perfect crunchy, tangy bite to balance it all out.
